After Hours Song Lyrics And Guitar Chords

The Battlefield Band recorded this song in F major with a Capo on the 3rd fret. A song about drinking and singing ballads in the pub after hours and getting away with it, sure isn't that when the craic really starts. More drink there boss. The guitar chords are in the key of D. The Green And The Blue is another popular song by The Battlefield Band.


(D)Going in through the (A)side (D)door
(G)No need to (D)worry now- the ghost is (A)clear
We can (G)make a little (D)music now the night is (A)ours
And it will (G)sound a lot (D)sweeter (A)after (D)hours


Chorus
(D)After (G)hours, really let your (D)hair  down
After (G)hours when the (D)light’s so (G)low(A)
